# Athens Greek Cooking Class: Pita Gyros from Scratch –The Original

In our comparison: #1 of 24 in Cooking Classes, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Learn to make one of Greece’s most beloved street foods completely from scratch, using our secret family recipes, passed down through generations and never published.

Then we’ll make our grandmother’s famous pita — soft, warm, fluffy and unbelievably delicious. Once you learn how to make it, you may never want to buy ready-made pita again!

You’ll also make our creamy tzatziki and our spicy feta spread, made with local spicy peppers 

And to finish, an incredibly easy and delicious Greek dessert that you’ll want to make again and again.

These aren’t recipes we found in a cookbook.
They are our family recipes, our memories and the flavours we grew up with.

And we’re not going to be humble about it — we set high expectations because we know we can meet them.

Our guests keep telling us this is the best pita gyros they’ve ever tasted.

We think it might be the best you’ll ever taste too — and we hope you’ll be one of the people who says it.
